― Marisha Pessl, Night Film

“Listening doesn't mean trying to understand. Anything, however trifling, may be of use one day. What matters is to know something that others don't know you know.”
― Umberto Eco, The Prague Cemetery

“Other animals don’t have progress, they say. But the human mind itself doesn’t progress. We stay the same glorified chimpanzees, just with ever bigger weapons. We have the knowledge to realise we are just a mass of quanta and particles, like everything else is, and yet we keep trying to separate ourselves from the universe we live in, to give ourselves a meaning above that of a tree or a rock or a cat or a turtle.”
― Matt Haig, How to Stop Time

“An impossibility is just a possibility you don’t understand yet”
― Matt Haig, A Boy Called Christmas
